When she can do intelligent ganks, she does it very well, the one thing giving me trouble is giving the kills to the laners, but it works out in the end. One Frozen Mallet, Wit's End and a Guardian Angel later, we push endlessly to the nexus and we win, with me leading the charge as a dragon. That unstoppable feeling is someting that I have yet to find on any other champion.
And then comes Riven, the opposite of Shyvana. Early game ganks, dominance and snowballing. But I find her to be much much MUCH more risk-reward than Shyvana, who is a very safe pick. Riven jungle is easy to get an advantage but very hard to keep it. You have to keep your momentum throughout the game and that becomes hard, especially when teamfights start to occur. But, if Riven's team wins 1 or 2 teamfights then it's a sure win.
Other junglers I have:
Darius: He mana-starves. FAST. I hate mana champions without mana runes and items. Also his ganks may be strong but if you don't feed the laner the kills you're going to suffer late game. Meh.
Jax: Haven't jungled him in a PVP game, but he clears fast, his ganks are strong and he doesn't run out of mana fast. I could get to like him, just need to find a good way to build him for each situation, because the jungler's income is somewhat clunky and can't build gunblade and triforce in a real game.
Kayle: Like Jax, her mana is somewhat good as long as you don't spam anything more than E you'd be golden, and she clears really fast with it. Lots of potential, but seems a little lackluster idk why.
Master Yi: No. First champion I bought and I don't like him at all.
Nocturne: Just bought him on the sale, haven't tried him in PVP but he looks like he might become my go-to ganking jungler, altough the mana issue is still there. He clears fast nevertheless. But, as nocturne, I could always use the other team's Blue :3
Renekton: He isn't a standard jungler and I can't see why. Just because his E is bugged with the Fog of War is not a good reason not to jungle him. He clears fast, sustains well, has STRONG ganks, can tower dive early, doesn't need a lot of items to be strong bar late game (Can just build 2 doran>Brutalizer early, sell Brutalizer for LW late). Seriously worth trying in the jungle.
Tryndamere: Like a mana-less Darius. Entertaining, yet I feel that I'm not playing Tryndamere well just by pressing W and right clicking. Awkward. But, I like him nevertheless.
Warwick: Mana hungry, clears so-so, ganks worse than Riven, Renekton or Nocturne or everyone that has snare or CC with less than a minute CD. Good starting jungler, but please grow out of it.
Tried Shaco, didn't like him (don't like gank-all junglers too much), tried Udyr, didn't connect with him. Altough he uses mana, he doesn't need anything other than Phoenix for fast clears, so that's pretty good. I want to try Lee Sin as soon as I can :/ Also Mundo, but he's ugly.
